On September 23, 2026, just before a parliamentary vote, the Romanian government signed a controversial framework agreement for operational leasing of vehicles. A small company from Suceava won the contract despite having only one employee and no vehicles available. The firm was supposed to deliver 17 SUVs but instead provided cheaper alternatives temporarily. The contract, valued at over 2.6 million lei, raised concerns about legality due to existing austerity measures and restrictions on public vehicle leasing. The winning company, LEAISIN, has ties to political figures and has previously faced scrutiny for its operations. This situation highlights potential misuse of legislative loopholes in public procurement.
